    Repeating section gets completely uneditable when i click on the insert new section

    Hi,

     I have a IP 2003 form based out off a MS access table.

    The form basically inserts records into the table, so i have put in a repeating section structure for that. My form works absolutely fine.

    But when it comes to ease of use, i have an issue. Whenever i click on the option to insert a new repeating section, the new section is created, but with the entire table highlighted in a different color and all the fields blocked. I have to point the mouse pointer to one of the fields in the new section so that i can use that new section.

    I would like the mouse pointer to be placed on a particular field in the new section whenever i insert a new section.

    Is this because of the system performance or any setting ?  Is there a workaround or a way to avioid this from happening ?

    Thanks...

    Thanks,
    Kiran

     When I add a new row to a repeating section, I also see the entire new row covered in light blue, but if I begin typing, the text is entered in the first control in the row.  If I press Tab, the cursor is positioned in the first control.  Is this not true for you?

    This is the exact behaviour i am also seeing. But at home when i do this in IP2007, i don't observe this thing. May be a difference in IP2003 and IP2007 ?

    Thanks,
    Kiran
